Meet Your Favorite Disney Characters While Dining in Style
There is no better way to meet Mickey Mouse, the Disney Princesses, and beloved storybook characters than during a relaxing, seated character meal at Walt Disney World Resort. Instead of waiting in long outdoor standby meet-and-greet lines under the Florida sun, characters come directly to your table for private autographs, photos, and magical interactions.
From dining inside Cinderella Castle at Cinderella's Royal Table to meeting Mickey in his painter's beret at Topolino's Terrace or taking photos with the Evil Queen at Story Book Dining at Artist Point, character meals sell out in seconds at the 60-day mark. Vincent Magical Vacations snipes your character dining reservations at 6:00 AM EST with zero agency markup.
